Picture Day

I have long since given up on trying to dress the children up for their school pictures, as you can see from LO's terrible 2013 photo shoot. (To be fair, I gave birth that day, but still).

However, J and I hoped that the kids could at least have better hair this year. To that end, we got out the comb before school and ran it through both kids' hair.

BB, ever happy to enjoy a new experience, submitted to the combing with good grace and pleasure. He even tried combing his own hair, with the non-toothed edge of the comb, in solidarity.

LO, on the other hand, wanted only to snuggle with me. In an attempt to get him to sit up so we could complete the minimal photo prep, I told him, "LO, please sit up! We need to make you beautiful and handsome."

LO snuggled even closer and shouted "No! I don't want to be beautiful!"

About Me

I'm an author. I'm a blogger. I'm a mom. I'm good with money. I'm a mensch. I'm a former school teacher.
I wear a lot of hats, and I write about all of them. What unifies them all is my sense of humor and my quest to make rational decisions about everything (including and especially parenting and money), and to help other people do the same.
